Flavor is on the caramel-y/bourbon end of whiskey

But with the addition of a couple ice cubes (or as a mixer with coke or ginger ale) you could almost believe you were consuming a bottom-shelf alcoholic beverage. The flavor is on the caramel-y/bourbon end of whiskey — confusingly, the scent of peat never shows itself in the taste — and is a bit more sweet than any bourbon I would normally drink.
